Chapter 13 Crystal Core
Qin Zhuo sat in the passenger seat, his eyes fixed on the map in his hand. Then he looked up and directed, "Take the road to the left. There's a small village ahead. We'll set up a house there to rest tonight."
Chen Yunfei turned the steering wheel and drove onto the left-hand road.
Soon, they arrived at the small village.
But the village was eerily quiet.
Qin Zhuo said seriously, "Be careful, this place is strange."
However, no sooner had he finished speaking than Yu Xiang swaggered off towards a small villa.
This little villa is nice; it's suitable for zombies to live in.
Yu Xiang pushed open the villa door with a creak.
The moment the door opened, a fireball flew straight at her.
Immediately afterwards, a hideous zombie darted out of the darkness.
Qin Zhuo was horrified when he saw this scene. His eyes widened instantly, and he ran wildly towards Youxiang.
Chen Yunfei was also terrified, his face turning deathly pale. "Little Yuzu!"
But Qin Zhuo was too slow, and the fireball struck Youxiang.
The fragrance of yuzu was instantly engulfed by the fireball.
Enraged, Qin Zhuo unleashed a surge of powerful energy, unleashing a devastating bolt of lightning that struck the zombie attacking Youxiang.
With a loud "boom," the zombie was smashed to pieces, and limbs and fragments flew everywhere.
Chen Yunfei suddenly shouted, "Brother Qin, Xiaoyouzi is alright."
Qin Zhuo hurriedly looked in the direction where Youxiang was.
The fireball gradually died down, and a pale blue water sphere, like a bubble, steadily enveloped the grapefruit fragrance within.
Yuka blinked her eyes inside, looking very curious.
She reached out her little hand and curiously touched the water ball, even poking it with her finger.
The water balloon burst with a "pop," and water poured down like a waterfall, instantly soaking Yu Xiang.
Her wet hair clung to her face, making her look extremely disheveled.
It's so uncomfortable to be soaked!
Yuka shook her head vigorously, splashing water from her hair onto the ground around her.
Qin Zhuo strode up to Youxiang, his face flushed with anger, and scolded, "Youxiang, can't you think things through before you act? You're so reckless!"
Youxiang's face fell instantly after being scolded by Qin Zhuo.
The little zombie is angry and wants to hit someone!
Small water balls appeared around Youxiang and then slammed towards Qin Zhuo with a "whoosh" sound.
Chen Yunfei was extremely surprised, "Little Yuzu actually has water-based superpowers!"
Qin Zhuo never expected Youxiang to attack him, and he felt both angry and helpless.
That heartless bastard!
He raised his hand, and several bolts of lightning struck the small water ball.
With a series of "crackling" sounds, the small water ball quickly dispersed.
Qin Zhuo discovered that those small water balls were just ordinary water balls, without any energy. Even if they hit him, they wouldn't hurt; they would only wet his clothes.
Youxiang didn't want to hurt Qin Zhuo.
I'm so angry! Not a single water balloon hit Zhuozhuo.
Enraged, Yu Xiang threw a bunch of water balloons at Qin Zhuo.
After Qin Zhuo realized that the water sphere was not dangerous, the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up slightly.
Little Yuzu isn't so heartless.
Next, Qin Zhuo simply dodged nimbly and didn't waste his special ability.
But Youxiang got into a stalemate with Qin Zhuo, and she started playing a water fight on her own.
I refuse to believe I can't smash you!
Chen Yunfei was initially worried that the two would actually fight.
He has a brother and a powerful ally; who should he help when the time comes? This puts him in a difficult position.
But as they watched, they realized it was just Yuuka throwing a tantrum, and they breathed a sigh of relief.
He should go and explore the surrounding area.
A dozen minutes later.
Yu Xiang's small nose twitched slightly.
What smells so good!
Youxiang stopped chasing Qin Zhuo and started looking around.
It smells so good! I really want to eat it! (′﹃`)
Yuka unconsciously licked her lips.
Since becoming a zombie, Yuka had never felt hungry, but now, that smell made her feel hungry for the first time.
Upon returning from the reconnaissance, Chen Yunfei, seeing Youxiang's anxious expression, couldn't help but turn to Qin Zhuo and ask, "Brother Qin, what is Xiaoyou looking for?"
Qin Zhuo, however, seemed not to hear her and followed behind Youxiang, afraid that she would cause some trouble again.
Finally, Yuka stopped at the spot where the zombie had died earlier. Her gaze fell on a red crystal core, and her eyes widened instantly.
She wanted to take it, but then she felt disgusted that the crystal core was inside her brain.
How disgusting!
Yu Xiang turned her head to look at Qin Zhuo behind her and said pitifully, "Zhuo Zhuo, I want that."
She pointed to the red crystal core on the ground.
Qin Zhu crossed his arms, deliberately put on a stern face, and looked at Youxiang, saying, "Will you still act recklessly next time? Don't you have a brain?"
Yuka tilted her head and blinked innocently, "But zombies don't have brains!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Zhuo was speechless.
Chen Yunfei burst out laughing.
Chen Yunfei's laughter caught Youxiang's attention.
"Brother Chen, could you help me with this?"
Yu Xiang asked someone else for help.
Chen Yunfei agreed without hesitation, "Okay!"
He regretted it as soon as he said it.
Qin Zhuo's icy gaze was fixed on his back.
Why did he get involved in this childhood sweetheart relationship? He's just asking for trouble!
He's just too kind! Always willing to help others.
Yu Xiang kept urging, "Brother Chen, why aren't you helping me get it yet? Hurry up and get it!"
These words, when they reached Chen Yunfei's ears, were like a death knell, making him feel extremely uneasy.
But how could he not keep his promise?
With a heavy heart, Chen Yunfei carefully picked up the crystal core from the sticky brain matter.
The moment he touched the crystal core, a strange feeling surged into his heart; he could clearly sense the energy contained within it.
Chen Yunfei's eyes widened. "Brother Qin, this crystal core is no ordinary thing!"
Qin Zhuo stared at the crystal core in Chen Yunfei's hand, "How could something inside a zombie's body be simple?"
Yuka stood to the side, her eyes fixed on the red crystal core, and swallowed hard.
I want to eat it! (′﹃`)
But the thought that the crystal core was taken from brain matter made her face scrunch up instantly, showing her utter disgust.
She quickly turned her head and called out to Chen Yunfei, "Brother Chen, we need to take a shower!"
Chen Yunfei looked bewildered and asked in confusion, "What do you mean, 'wash'? Wash what?"
Seeing that Chen Yunfei didn't understand, Youxiang waved her hand and activated her superpower instantly. A light blue water ball appeared in front of Chen Yunfei with a "poof".
"Put it in!"
Chen Yunfei subconsciously followed Youxiang's instructions and put the crystal core into the water sphere.
The moment the crystal nucleus entered the water sphere, the water inside the sphere began to spin at high speed, just like a small washing machine.
The crystal nucleus was being washed and spun around inside the water sphere.
A few minutes later, the water balloon dissipated.
Yuxiang has a clean red crystal core.
Take a big gulp.
Before Qin Zhuo and Chen Yunfei could react, he swallowed the crystal core in one gulp.
